Slight signs of wear consistent with its age and use.
Around 1918–1925, Giacomo Balla, a leading figure of Italian Futurism, conceived a series of ‘Futurist flowers’: plants cut out in geometric, colourful shapes, which interpret nature through the dynamic language of movement. These designs, most of which remained as painted cardboard models, were realised on a large scale by Dino Gavina, and later by his son Simon at Paradisoterrestre, as part of the Centro Duchamp, an organisation dedicated to the re-creation of avant-garde works. This steel Aloe, standing over one and a half metres tall, transforms an intimate design into a sculpture suitable for either an interior or a garden.
